Construction, busy or slowing down

Devils in the details. @westbranch says not eligible if it's collectively bargained OT.

That surprises me. Is that verified? Must be corporate had more sway (Money) then the union. But the union would have more voters.

I googled it. Take that for what it is. But he's a CPA here so im assuming he knows what he's talking about. MY guess is it may have had more to do with the majority of unions endorsing the other guy?

I'm not entirely sure either. Id bet it's dependent on trade/agreement.

I know there's a lot of people really excited about it - who might not see the deduction or at least all of it because of income limits.

That sucks. So the next question will be. I assume that scale wages are considered collective bargaining agreement. Which may mean that guys are way less excited about being on a scale job.

Bumping this thread. How's everyone else's outlook? Owner of the company says this year they are already booked above what we totaled for least year and were only 6 weeks in. My local shared the same report that both housing, data centers and infrastructure are set to break records this year. My cousin interviewed with a company today that is offering our scale plus an additional $4k per diem and paid housing per month to travel. If I was a single guy I would be on that like flies on shit.

It’s booming around me. In fact, the bought and paid for UT Legislature has passed a law that gives developers the ability to bypass local planning and zoning boards and go directly to the Lieutenant Governor to get approval for their projects. Also bypasses all environmental, infrastructure, feasibility and other checks and balances that a proposed development is a good addition to a community. Basically, developer writes a big campaign donation check and then gets to do whatever the hell they want.

Sounds about right. ( not right just on par I guess)

I’m booked up for this year but that’s carryover from last year. Turning down enough work to put someone else in business.
